And so, "...the first principle of our proposed new network architecture: Layers are recursive."
Hi Scott, Anyone who has bridged an ethernet via a TCP based IPSec tunnel understands that layers are recursive.
John Day has been chasing this notion long enough to write three network stacks. If it works and isn't obviously inferior in its operational resource consumption, where's the proof-of-concept code? The last time this was discussed in the Routing Research Group, none of the proponents were able to adequately describe how to build a translation/forwarding table in the routers or whatever passes for routers in this design.
